The Stoat app linked in the article seems to be the path of least resistance to be honest. I hope to see people switch the way they moved from Twitter to Bluesky. Yeah, Mastodon existed, but Bluesky ended up being more normie-friendly. I believe we can draw parallels here.

    AFAIK the amount of people who permanently moved from twitter to bluesky is a rounding error in twitter's userbase. I have the same expectation for discord, unfortunately.

    A mass exodus takes some time. If the new place is perceived as better then adoption rates can become exponential. Getting to that critical mass of enough users for content generation and being fully featured is a hell of a hurdle though
